    • Raydodd & Emily Hester: Battling the Unthinkable at 39

      Raydodd & Emily Hester: Battling the Unthinkable at 39
      Feb 1 2026
      At 39 years old, Emily Hester found a lump. She wasn't supposed to have her first mammogram until she turned 40—but something felt off. A week after walking into that appointment with her husband Raydodd, Emily was diagnosed with triple-positive breast cancer. What followed wasn't just a medical battle—it was a test of faith, marriage, resilience, and what it actually means to keep moving forward when the unthinkable arrives at your door. This is a conversation about what happens when life splits into before and after. It's about the shock of hearing "you have cancer" while your daughters wait at home. It's about the choice to keep making memories, baking waffles, and celebrating birthdays even when your body is being pumped full of chemotherapy. And it's about a marriage that didn't crumble under the weight of fear—it grew stronger because of what they chose to do with it. Raydodd and Emily don't sugarcoat the hard parts. They talk about anger, fear, bone pain, losing hair, and the moment they had to sit their two young daughters down and tell them Mom is sick. But they also talk about gratitude for the small things, the people who showed up, and the faith that carried them through when nothing else made sense. This isn't a story about surviving cancer—it's a story about how two people chose to battle it together, one day at a time, without losing sight of who they are and what matters most. ⸻ IN THIS EPISODE • The moment Emily found the lump at 39—and the week that changed everything • How Raydodd processed the diagnosis as a husband and father of two young girls • The choice to tell their daughters the truth—and what happened when they walked through the door • Why their 15-year marriage gave them the foundation to face this together • The blessing of early detection, fast appointments, and a friend who made one phone call that saved time Emily didn't have • Starting chemotherapy on January 2nd—and what it actually feels like to lose your hair, your energy, and pieces of yourself • How they kept "business as usual" for their girls—baking cookies, celebrating Christmas, and refusing to let cancer steal their family's joy • The importance of asking for help, building a support system, and why gratitude for the little things became their lifeline • What resilience looks like when you're sitting in an infusion chair, wearing a wig, and still showing up for the people you love ⸻ Chapters 00:00:00 Welcome and Introduction to Emily and Raydodd Hester 00:02:35 The Importance of Reading and Family Rituals 00:07:00 Raydodd's Work with Arkansas Crisis Center 00:21:34 Emily's Love Story: From College Friends to Marriage 00:26:10 Marriage Vows and Building a Foundation of Faith 00:30:20 Navigating Marriage Challenges and Communication 00:39:19 What They Love Most About Each Other 00:44:39 December 15, 2023: The Diagnosis 00:46:07 The Power of Friendship and Divine Timing 01:01:10 Telling the Girls and Family 01:12:11 Understanding Triple-Positive Breast Cancer 01:26:15 Surgery, Port Placement, and Preparing for Treatment 01:30:55 Starting Chemotherapy on January 2nd 01:31:50 The Emotional Journey of Losing Hair 01:39:36 Gratitude, Support Systems, and Looking Forward ⸻ ABOUT RAYDODD & EMILY HESTER Raydodd and Emily Hester are dedicated partners in family, community, and service.

    • Chris Waddell: Resilience, Performance, and the Choice to Live Fully

      Chris Waddell: Resilience, Performance, and the Choice to Live Fully
      Jan 15 2026
      At 19 years old, Chris Waddell was a promising ski racer at Middlebury College when a freak accident during training left him paralyzed. His ski popped off mid-turn, and in that moment, everything changed. But what happened next wasn't a story of accepting limits—it was a story of refusing to let anyone define what recovery could mean. In this conversation, Chris walks through the decision his parents made to never tell him he'd never walk again—and how that choice shaped everything. He shares what it took to become the fastest mono skier in the world despite competing against athletes with physical advantages, why his Mount Kilimanjaro climb taught him more about failure than success, and what happens when you realize that your definition of winning might be too small. This isn't a highlight reel. It's a conversation about what it actually costs to rebuild your identity after everything you thought you were gets taken away. ⸻ IN THIS EPISODE • A ski popped off at 19 years old—and the moment that split Chris's life into before and after • Why his parents chose not to tell him he'd never walk again—and how that decision shaped his recovery • Learning to mono ski with parents who'd never seen the equipment—rebuilding identity through the sport that almost took everything • Becoming the fastest mono skier in the world at Lillehammer despite competing at a physical disadvantage • The Mount Kilimanjaro climb: what happens when 100 feet of failure redefines what success actually means • Vulnerability as strength—why the hardest part of the climb became the most important story to tell • What resilience actually looks like when you don't know what's coming next ⸻ Chapters 00:00:00 Welcome and Introduction to Chris Waddell 00:09:53 Early Life and Family in Massachusetts 00:11:45 Discovering Skiing and Early Coaching 00:18:33 College Skiing and The Accident 00:21:08 Hospital Recovery and Family Resilience 00:28:33 Learning to Monoski 00:36:37 The Path to Paralympic Competition 00:44:11 Breakthrough with Custom Equipment 00:48:08 Becoming the Fastest in the World 01:16:34 Paralympic Success and Track Racing 01:21:21 Retirement and Finding New Purpose 01:27:48 The Six-Year-Old Girl and Kilimanjaro 01:32:41 Training for Kilimanjaro 01:38:59 The Climb Begins 01:48:23 The Boulder Field and Acceptance 01:54:34 Defining Resilience 01:56:19 Where to Find Chris and Closing ⸻ ABOUT CHRIS WADDELL Chris Waddell is a 13-time Paralympic medalist, Paralympic Hall of Fame inductee, and the most decorated male mono skier in Paralympic history.

    • Mark Greene: Rebuilding a Life After the Uniform Comes Off (Part 2)

      Mark Greene: Rebuilding a Life After the Uniform Comes Off (Part 2)
      Jan 1 2026
      If you haven’t watched Part 1 yet, we recommend starting there. Part 1 covers Mark’s upbringing, path into the SEAL Teams, and the experiences that shaped who he became. Part 2 picks up where that foundation cracks—and where the real work begins. Retired Navy SEAL sniper and bestselling author Mark Greene returns in Part 2 of this conversation to talk about what happens after the identity, structure, and mission are stripped away. In this half of the conversation, Mark and Cole move beyond origin stories and into the hardest work of Mark’s life—owning the damage, facing the consequences of unresolved pain, and rebuilding from the inside out. This is a conversation about responsibility, faith in practice, and the long, unglamorous road of becoming whole again. If Part 1 was about how Mark was formed, Part 2 is about how he was broken—and what it actually took to rebuild his life, his relationships, and his leadership. ⸻ ⸻ IN THIS EPISODE (PART 2) • Transitioning out of the SEAL Teams and losing a core identity • The danger of unmanaged success and emotional avoidance • How shame compounds when it goes unaddressed • The moment Mark realized the old way of living was no longer sustainable • Faith as discipline and daily practice—not a label • What real ownership looks like without self-destruction • Rebuilding trust, presence, and integrity one decision at a time ⸻ ⸻ CHAPTERS (PART 2 – MARK GREENE) 00:00:00 Returning from the break and resetting the conversation 00:04:15 Leaving the Teams and the identity vacuum that followed 00:14:30 When success can no longer hide what’s broken 00:26:40 Avoidance, emotional shutdown, and delayed consequences 00:38:55 The moment running stopped working 00:50:10 Faith as obedience, not comfort 01:01:45 Ownership versus shame: learning the difference 01:13:30 Rebuilding trust through consistency and time 01:24:20 Fatherhood, presence, and new non-negotiables 01:35:10 What Mark would tell the man standing at the edge ⸻ ⸻ ABOUT MARK GREENE Mark Greene is a retired Navy SEAL who served on both East and West Coast SEAL Teams, including time as a sniper and instructor, before transitioning into life after the military. He is the bestselling author of UnSEALed: A Navy SEAL’s Guide to Mastering Life’s Transitions, a book that walks readers through the key transition points in life and how to navigate them with resilience, honesty, and courage.
